We were first developing this Do Disturb site on php. We were half way finish and our target was Feb 15, 2007 to finish entire site and put it up for beta test. Large amount of people recommanded that we should use asp.net 2.0 + sql 2005 for extra performance. So, now we’re developing this new Do Disturb Social Networking site with following configuration:
Win 2003
ASP.NET 2.0 (With Ajax functionality)
SQL 2005

� We hope to get good performance through these settings. Also, our development cycle is now renewed, as you know we’re starting from scratch.

� New Completion Date will be posted by: Feb 10, 2007

With a few exceptions, Sony Corp.’s PlayStation Portable hasn’t had many good games since it was released a few years ago. The new “Metal Gear Solid: Portal Ops,” (Rated M, $39.99) is one of those rare titles to buck that trend. This latest in a long series of spy-action thrillers from Hideo Kojima is about as good as gaming gets on the PSP.

I’ve always been enamored with the “Metal Gear” series and its blend of Cold War intrigue, calculated action and oddball humor. This successful mix continues with “Portable Ops.”

Despite a few glitches that mar an otherwise perfect game, this new edition adds many enhancements that make it worth considering.

Technologically, “Portable Ops” is a huge leap over previous PSP versions in the series such as “Metal Gear Acid 2.”

Previous games were turn-based, but this time the world of espionage and infiltration plays out in real-time 3D graphics that look superb on the PSP’s dazzling screen.

It’s one of the few games that seems to have harnessed the true potential of the PSP.

The single-player story finds the gruff, eye-patch wearing Naked Snake in a South American prison in 1970. Inexorably, he is sucked into the vortex of a military conspiracy involving the CIA, the Soviet Union and a host of mysterious military operatives and organizations that fans of the series will find familiar.

There are some excellent additions to the usual tasks, such as sneaking around guards to snag secret documents and crawling through underground tunnels.

What’s most engaging are the role-playing elements: you can take out enemy soldiers, drag their sleeping bodies back to a waiting troop transport vehicle and then recruit them to your cause.

Eventually, you’ll be controlling squads of converted troops with special abilities such as medical skills, sniper accuracy and stealthiness. These abilities are more than just a stat sheet: you’ll need to deploy the right mix of abilities to successfully perform missions.

There’s an incredible array of online modes beyond the single-player story, which neatly ties together other games in the series.

You can even recruit characters from other “Portable Ops” gamers who are within reach of the PSP’s ad-hoc and infrastructure wireless capabilities.

Once you’ve organized these characters into squads, you can put them to work in various online multiplayer modes, such as death match and recovery missions.

Though “Portable Ops” offers plenty to do, the doing part sometimes gets bogged down by weird controls that had me switching between first-person and third-person perspectives.

Switching between the two can be frustrating, especially if you get caught in a sudden firefight. And as good as the graphics are overall, some of the textures when I was crawling in a ventilation shaft were bland and ugly when viewed up close.

These are relatively minor complaints, however, in a game that really combines the best elements of the “Metal Gear” series into one portable game.

To put it simply… EXCELLENT MOVIE!

There is nothing deep about this movie, it is just, quite simply, a very funny, fun, and enjoyable ride!! It’s one of those movies that children would love, and adults would love just as much. The comedy isn’t outlandish or vicious in any way. The characters (even the bad guys) are likable in their own ways.

One of my favorite moments was in the diaroma room. In one display is the roman empire, and right next to the romans is a scene of the expansion of the american railways out to west. These two groups are feuding, and in one scene you see the romans using a battering ram against the wall leading into the wild west scene, and when asked what they are doing, they respond “we must expand to survive!”. In the wild west scene, they are setting up dynamite against the moutain shaped wall leading to the romans, and when they are asked what they are doing, they respond “It’s manifest destiny!”.

Robin Williams… always a wonderful comedic actor… plays Rosevelt and is Ben Stiller’s character’s support throught the movie, offering up advice and trying to help Stiller’s character become a better man by having him face all of the challenges head on. One of the best things about Robin Williams he is a wonderful lead actor, but also a wonderful supporting actor. He can share the spotlight very easily. Never once did he ever seem like he was taking over a scene, and yet, he lent just the right amount of humor to the movie.

Movie Review Team

I� know, it’s already a week into 2007. I’ve assembled a list, in order of their release, with a short paragraph about how I felt about each one.

“X-Man: The Last Stand”�

Honestly, this movie had way too many characters. No one character got to be on screen long enough to make an impact. Plus there were huge plot points that challenged my ability to suspend disbelief. In the end, though, this concluded (maybe) one of the best series of comic book adaptations yet.

This both lived up to the hype and kind of disappointed me at the same time. It had everything I was expecting in a sequel to a movie based on a theme park ride. But not much more. The movie got a lot of crap for not just being two and a half hours of Johnny Depp acting like a gay pirate. But I actually liked the added intricacies of the plot. Overall, this movie kind of felt like Disney shaking its moneymaker. But that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy it.

“The Departed”�

This movie almost had to be good. Directed by Martin Scorsese, starring Matt Damon, Jack Nicholson, Leonardo DiCaprio and scores of others. It did not disappoint. Another one in the top five for the year.

“Casino Royale”

A fantastic way to “relaunch” the somewhat stale Bond series. And that’s coming from a huge Bond fan who’s seen each entry in the series at least three times. Daniel Craig basically got rid of everything that Bond stood for for the last 40 years, and only pulled back the elements that weren’t silly or stupid. Fleming’s gritty Bond was brought back.

“The Good Shepherd”�

Another quality Matt Damon performance. I enjoyed it, although toward the end I had more questions than answers. I won’t say the movie bored me, but it definitely lacks the impact of some of the other films I’ve seen this year.
